so why the leak of an obama plan? >> yeah, well, first of all i think this is something that is worth keeping in mind through all the big policy debates coming up. for instance, look at sequester and potentially another grand bargain where obama says he wants to balance the approach, more tax revenue and the republican response to that is always okay, now be specific, put a plan forward. this is what is going to happen if obama puts a plan forward on the entitlements and everything else. they're going to immediately reject it. that said, i think there is a dance here. it is a really messed up, screwed up dance that will ultimately get us to a kind of immigration reform. basically, if the psychology of the republican party, can't be obama-led or obama's bill, it can't be obama leading the republicans around. it could be obama putting the plan out, republicans talking about how it is tyranny, king obama, everything they're doing now. eventually, maybe a week or month from now, whatever it is, they come back with somethi

with barack obama's issues and not theirs. so if they're willing to move and change and compromise, if marco rubio is willing to help pass a comprehensive immigration bill and actually succeed at it, and a lot of republicans vote for, it then he will get a lot of credit. if he leads the way on immigration and a lot of republicans vote no, then he's not going to be a savior of the party. >> to his point, robert, i don't know if you read e.j. deon's column in "the washington post" today, he said it's a question of whether or not the republican party is rebranding or rethinking, and he wrote, republicans are slowly realizing that the nation's priorities are not the gop's traditional priorities. what do you make of that? >> i think it's a combination of both. i think it's rebranding but also rethinking. in order to rebrand yourself, tough rethink about your positions. in order to rethink your positions, you clearly have to rebrand them -- >> for example, you said you don't agree with all of rubio's positions. what are some of the

boehner's house passed 30 repeals of obama care. more out of touch nonsense that the country rejected. recently they passed a bill pretending to withhold pay raises from congress, but of course that's something they constitutionally can't do. and president obama says it's time to get serious. and it is. but republicans show no signs of seriously addressing the pain ahead for the middle class in this country. and it is about the middle class. and then there is simpson/bowles, which i think is a total fraud, and we shouldn't be listening to people who have, number one, retirement security and health care security for the rest of their lives. they're the wrong people to listen to. they're doing a lot of grandstanding. but they shouldn't get much attention. more commentary coming on simpson/bowles in just a moment. get your cell phones out. i want to know what you think. tonight's question. will the republicans allow the sequester to destroy the middle class? text "a" for yes. text b for no to 67622. you can always go to our blog at ed.
